I hate neurontin I take 1600 mg a day on top of my infusion that I have every 6 months.I have put on weight but it's not just the medication it's that we can't do excerise and I find I eat more.

I've been on gabapentin for years and I gained some weight on it. I find going to the YMCA to to Gentle Toning and Stretching in the therapy pool helpful. I also cut way back on my portion sizes and the junk food I eat.

I've been on neuronton before. I was on 1800 mgs daily. I didn't notice weight gain, but the help it provided was minimal.

I don't think its a terrible drug It helps different people in different ways I use it personally for anti seizures other people use it for nerve pain etc etc I haven't gained any weight from it but it effects different people in different ways..good luck

I gained a ton of weight!!! A ton. If you are gaining a lot - get off it. It is a terrible drug anyway.
